Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup self-rising flour (or homemade: 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1½ tsp baking powder, ¼ tsp salt)
- 1 scoop protein powder (vanilla or unflavored)
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (full-fat or non-fat, your choice)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
- Mix the Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, self-rising flour, and protein powder. Stir until the mixture forms a dough; it may be slightly sticky, which is normal.
- Shape the Dough: Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it 3-4 times to bring it together. Pat the dough down to about ½-inch thickness. Use a biscuit cutter or a round glass to cut out biscuit shapes.
- Bake: Arrange the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between them. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
- Serve and Enjoy: Allow the biscuits to cool slightly before serving. They taste best warm but can also be reheated for leftovers.
Notes
- Don’t overwork the dough; minimal handling helps keep the biscuits fluffy.
- If the dough is too sticky, dust your hands or the work surface with a little extra flour.
- Make ahead: store biscuits in the refrigerator for a couple of days or freeze for longer storage.
- Customize by adding shredded cheese for a savory version or chopped herbs like rosemary, thyme, or chives for extra flavor.
- For a sweet twist, use vanilla protein powder and drizzle with honey or sprinkle cinnamon on top.
